(PatriotPostNews.com) — Reportedly, North Korea will deploy a sizable contingent of engineers and construction forces to assist in the reconstruction of eastern Ukrainian cities that Russia seized.
Reconstruction efforts, particularly in the severely damaged Donetsk area, will be spearheaded by the military, who are expected to arrive as early as June. In return for a yearly payment of $115 million (£92 million) from Russia, three of North Korea’s four engineering battalions will be sent to Ukraine. Without going into detail about the location, the objective is to reconstruct a city that was decimated by battle.
North Korean soldiers would be “cannon fodder” if they fought with Moscow’s forces in Ukraine, according to Pentagon spokesman Pat Ryder’s Tuesday warning. This comes after Vladimir Putin’s unusual official visit to Pyongyang last week, during which he signed a new military treaty with Kim Jong-un. With its weapons stockpiles dwindling and its military sector crippled by Western sanctions, North Korea continues to play a pivotal role as a weapons supplier to Moscow.
With dizzying rapidity, the red lines on either side are being penetrated one after the other. North Korea is reportedly planning to dispatch troops to the Russian-held Donbas Oblast within the next month, adding fuel to the fire that Biden is preparing to authorize the deployment of American PMC personnel to Ukraine to assist in repairing USW-made damaged equipment.
Vladimir Putin and Kim Jong Un signed a military treaty during their formal state visit to the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea a week ago. Under the terms of the pact, if one or more states militarily invade one side of the conflict, the other side is obligated to promptly offer all available military and nonmilitary support to the aggressor.
Russia has already received millions of rounds of ammunition. They have procured rockets and what are allegedly ballistic missiles from the DPRK since the leaders’ summit in Russia in September.
There are no longer any secure deep rear regions in the War of Ukraine, and the active involvement of North Korean forces is likely to exacerbate the fight. This war is killing everyone everywhere with its artillery, drones, and missiles.
